Sachem Students Earn Advanced Placement Scholar Awards

Sachem School District is proud to announce that 95 Sachem High School North and 93 Sachem High School East students have been named AP Scholars by the College Board in recognition of their exceptional achievement on the college-level Advanced Placement (AP) Examinations. This is an increase from the 84 North students and the 82 East students that were commended the last year.
 
High school students take AP examinations, which are graded on a 5-point scale, in May after completing challenging college-level courses. AP courses are accepted by more than 3,600 colleges and universities worldwide for college credit, advanced placement, or both on the basis of successful AP exam grades.
 
The College Board recognizes several levels of achievement and some Sachem High School students received more than one award.
 
Two students qualified for the National AP Scholar Award by earning grades of 4 or higher on eight or more AP examinations with an average exam grade of at least 4 on all AP exams taken.
